The rain kept pouring down last week. We went shopping since there wasn't much else to do. An oreo-no-bake-cheesecake made our evenings a bit more fun. In the daytime we played cards "Finns i sjön" and tried out Axel's new RC-car. The rainy week was good for Sten who started eating more than just rice and välling(gruel). Friday was the first day we could take a trip down to the beach in almost one week. Here is a photo of the chok a k a "congee"-sales woman at the market. Chok is a bland rice porridge with a little chicken or pork broth , perfect for babies.
Spending time on the beach is just great! Axel runs around collecting whatever garbage that comes in his way and Sten is happy just throwing sand on mum or dad. We are still trying out different ways to keep the boys, especially the little one, happy. The last couple of days we have let Sten sleep in my baby carrier while driving to some distant beach and put him down to rest once we get there. It's fun to spend more time on the beach instead of hurrying back to the house for his afternoon rest.
One day we went back to the beach in Sang Arun. It is a perfect place for backpackers, laid back and a little arty. However, you can tell that the season hasn't started quite yet. It is dirty and understaffed and there's lots of junk on the beach. I can't help but loving the place.
Close to where we live is the Wanakorn National Park. We have been there a couple of times now. The beach is shallow and clean. A planted pine forest suffice just enough shade for Sten as he goes around collecting pine cones. It is perfect for a picnic day.
Today we tried to find our way down to a beach behind a cliff that can be seen from the park. Instead we ended up on the park's nature trail. Finally the moped would take us no longer and we had to turn around. All we found was vegetation in every direction.
